Detection of acute rib fractures on CT images with convolutional neural networks: effect of location and type of fracture and reader ’s experience

ConclusionThe CNN specialized for the detection of acute rib fractures on CT images can improve the radiologists ’ diagnostic performance regardless of the type of fractures and reader’s experience. Further studies are needed to clarify the usefulness of the CNN for the detection of acute rib fractures on CT images in actual clinical practice.
